"Motherly instinct"

There's one thing that just irks the living hell out of me and it's people who don't understand what "motherly instinct" actually is.

It is basically "you can tell when your child needs something" but lots of women turn it into "you are their mom therefore are smarter than everyone in the world and can do things that science deems dangerous if you want to."

Examples:

Motherly instinct: I know this doctor said my baby should be fine with this cold but I just dont feel right so I'm going to get a second opinion

Ignorance: I know scientific evidence shows putting baby rice in my newborns bottle is a choking hazard but I think I'll see if it tricks them into sleeping longer.

Yes you are mom, but use your brain! You're not above danger!
